I am looking for a new GPU setup for my rig. I am currently looking at going with a XFX branded 5870($300-400 range) or maybe going with a 6870 and then adding another in the future for crossfire. From what I have read the performance of the two 6870s would be a little more than the 5870, cost a little more too. Looking for a good bang for the buck.

If you're on the price drop thing go with Nvidia. ATI seem to be resting on their laurels a little bit when it comes to slashing prices. Some of the Geforce cards now cost 50% of what they did when they released yet ATI have been as mean as dishwater when it comes to lowering prices.

The 5 series will change that though. It could be a new leaf for Nvidia at which point AMD will have to lower prices.
